When Money Changes Everything: Understanding Financial Grief

<p>In this episode of <em>Permission to Breathe</em>, Rev. Dr. Tammy Isaac explores financial grief, the emotional impact of losing financial stability or growing up without it. She examines how money affects security, identity, relationships, dignity, and the future we imagined for ourselves. This conversation also considers poverty, generational disadvantage, survival, shame, and the ways inequality can shape behavior without assuming that poverty causes criminality or excusing harm. <em>When Money Changes Everything: Understanding Financial Grief</em> creates space to acknowledge what financial hardship has taken, interrupted, or never made possible while affirming that our financial circumstances do not determine our worth.</p>
